▪ Do not pull the connecting cable over sharp edges or clamp it. Do not let it hang down and protect
it from heat and oil.
▪ Do not place the device on hot surfaces, such as hot plates or similar, and do not operate near open
flames.
▪ Do not operate the toaster without the crumb tray inserted.
▪ Never disconnect the mains plug from the socket by the cord or with wet hands.
▪ Stop using the appliance and/or connect it from the mains plug immediately if:
⋅
The appliance or mains cable is damaged
⋅
There is any suspicion of a fault after dropping the appliance or similar.
In such cases, send the appliance to be repaired.
▪ When inserting the toast, ensure that the bread slices do not get jammed. However, should this
happen, first pull the power plug and then remove the interference.
▪ The bread roll attachment should only be used with the lowest browning setting.
▪ Do not reach into the bread slots with your fingers or objects, such as forks, knives, etc.
▪ Only operate the toaster in the upright position away from other objects.
▪ Do not cover the bread slot during toasting. Do not lay any bread slices or rolls on the casing, as
this causes the device to overheat.
▪ No liability is assumed for any damages in cases of misuse, improper operation or unprofessional
repairs. Claims under warranty are likewise excluded in such cases.
Use
The WMF KITCHENminis long-slot toaster is a space-saving toaster for XXL toast slices (up to a size of
11x11cm), long slices of bread, bagels and rolls.
This toaster is suitable for standard slices of bread, XXL slices of bread (up to 11x11cm in size), plaited
yeast buns and similar bakery products with a maximum thickness of 2.8 cm.
Only use bakery products without fillings and toppings such as butter and jam.
Start-up
The section of the power cable not in use can be wound up and stored on the base of the appliance.
Connect the power plug to a shockproof socket.
Prior to first use, carry out at least three toasting cycles without bread and at maximum power,
to remove the surface protection on the heating elements. The smell released during this process
is harmless, but you should ensure good ventilation nevertheless. Always allow the appliance to
cool down a little before switching it on.
Warning, risk of burns: Accessible surfaces can become very hot. They remain hot for a while
even after toasting is finished. Insert the bread slice into the bread slot. To avoid the slice becoming
jammed, it should not be thicker than 2.8 cm. Place small slices upright in the bread slot so that it is
easier to take them out after toasting.

First set the slider (6) for the browning level to the middle setting. Press the lift button (1) down. The
device switches on and the lift button (1) moves into the holding position for the duration of the
toasting process. Once toasting is finished, the lift button (1) returns to the initial position, the appli-
ance automatically switches off and the finished toast or slice of bread is raised for removal from the
bread slot.
Notes on the browning level
If the toast is too light, select a higher control setting. If the toast is too dark, place the control (6) on
a lower setting. The higher the setting, the darker the browning is. With the control (6), you can brown
toast entirely to your taste from just slightly (min setting
The toasting result may vary at the same setting depending on the type, size, moisture and thickness
of the bread slices. Therefore, select a lower setting when toasting less moist bread and smaller slices.
Acrylamide is generated during excessive browning. Excessive browning of the toast should
therefore be avoided.
The various functions - single-sided toasting, warming/toasting and defrosting - can be activated after
the lift button (1) has been pressed downwards. The button of the selected function is illuminated
during the toasting process.
Single sided toasting
Ideal for baguettes, rolls and bagels. For single-sided toasting of a baguette, for
example, cut the baguette lengthwise. Place it in the bread slot so that the cut
side is facing the front. If this button is pressed immediately after switching the
toaster on, the slice will only be toasted on the front (where the WMF logo is
located).
Warming / retoasting
If the warming button (3)
appliance, cold but already toasted bread will be crisped up and too lightly
toasted bread will be slightly retoasted.
Defrosting
If this button (4)
is pressed directly after the appliance is switched on, the
toasting cycle will be extended automatically to toast frozen bread.
Stop button
To interrupt the toasting process prematurely, press the stop button (5). It is
always illuminated during toasting.
Removing the toast
With the integrated automatic lift mechanism, small slices of bread can also be
removed safely and easily.
